How do I tip my sitter?

I'm glad your sitter provided such exceptional service that you'd like to leave a tip! Unfortunately Rover does not have a way to tip through their website, so you have to either give the sitter cash, or coordinate with the sitter and send money electronically (PayPal, Venmo, Squarecash, etc.). You can always ask the sitter if they have a preferred method as well!

I feel this is a very inappropriate policy for a gig app. Such as groomers, other dog walker apps, and majority of the gig app economy relies on tips to be able to make these apps worth our time. Using apps such as cash app Venmo and Paypal are easily stolen, and disabled due to hacker activity.
The easiest way is to hand your sitter some cash when you pick up your dog or you return home and the sitter leaves your house. Otherwise, you can use one of the methods Carly suggests since there is no way of doing so using Rover's system, Please be advised that Rover takes a percentage of all payments, so adding it on to any reservation wouldn't work.
I'm sure the sitter will be most pleased to receive your acknowledgment.
